Reclaiming the Fathers Initiative

Reclaiming the Fathers: Back into the Community, the Family and Relationships: We will serve as a convener, a champion/advocate, and a service delivery entity to equip and position fathers to assume their responsibilities in the family. Our intent is to work with a collaborative network that is committed to the strengthening of our communities, families, and relationships.

One of our intentions is to host a series of forums/gatherings aimed at fostering community dialogue regarding strategies to repair the broken links which keep fathers out of alignment. We seek to create a safe place for dialogue and cultivate an environment conducive for healing, restoration, and renewal to begin.

There is a ‘Daddy Void’ and the traumatic effects of his absence in our lives is felt from childhood into adulthood. Many have endured varying levels of traumatic experiences that have left emotional, psychological, and physical scars. The cycle of brokenness is a shared experience that impacts both men and women, influencing how we show up in our daily lives.
